Maybe, this one? Lol. I compared this 1982 with another one and the mottos were completely different in the spread across the top of pennies. There is no mint mark so I'm assuming it's P. Thanks for any input.

Large date. The question that will not die.

On the large date, the shape of the '7' looks like a 7 when you view it upside down:

Also the space closest to the image that is smaller is on the large date:

Forget the motto, it is all in the date, Coop's pictures show it well. Really easy to tell them apart once you look at the differences.

The easiest way for me to tell the difference is if the 2 is curves or straight. a straight 2 (like yours) is a large date.
